  • Publication number: 20260087366
    Abstract: Transfer learning (TL)-based systems, methods, and devices are provided for neural network and/or neuromorphic network transmitters/receivers with a set of desired modulation orders. In one aspect, a source system trains a full neural net modulation/demodulation model, from which one or more upper/output layers are removed, and the remaining base layers are transferred into a target system. A set of one or more upper/output layers are generated for the set of desired modulation orders, then transferred into, and trained in, the target system. The target system may store the transferred base layers and the trained set of one or more upper/output layers for the set of desired modulation orders, and use them to modulate/demodulate any transmission having one of the set of desired modulation orders.

    Abstract: In some implementations, a transmitter may determine that a difference between a total age of incorrect information (AoII) obtained in a current iteration of an iterative algorithm and a total AoII in a previous iteration of the iterative algorithm satisfies a tolerance factor for algorithm convergence. The transmitter may use the iterative algorithm to solve a convex optimization problem based on a plurality of iterations that continue until an objective function associated with AoII converges to within the tolerance factor for algorithm convergence. The transmitter may determine a precoder matrix and a vector of scheduling indicators from a solving of the convex optimization problem. The transmitter may transmit, using a downlink multi-user communication framework based on rate-splitting multiple access (RSMA) in a semantic-aware network, one or more updates to one or more receivers based on the precoder matrix and the vector of scheduling indicators.

  • Publication number: 20250076954
    Abstract: Hierarchical Power Management (HPM) architecture considers the limits of scaling on a power management controller, the autonomy at each die, and provides a unified view of the package to a platform. At a simplest level, HPM architecture has a supervisor and one or more supervisee power management units (PMUs) that communicate via at least two different communication fabrics. Each PMU can behave as a supervisor for a number of supervisee PMUs in a particular domain. HPM addresses these needs for products that comprise a collection of dice with varying levels of power and thermal management capabilities and needs. HPM serves as a unified mechanism than can span collection of dice of varying capability and function, which together form a traditional system-on-chip (SoC). HPM provides a basis for managing power and thermals across a diverse set of dice.
